00:00Hello again. After a very wet day for some, it's looking a lot calmer for Friday, with many places dry and bright and some September sunshine.
00:10Swirl of cloud just heading out into the North Sea now. It was an area of low pressure that brought the very heavy rain of parts of the Midlands, Northern England especially.
00:18But we've seen some big showers elsewhere too, all calming down. So the wet weather clearing away.
00:23There'll still be one or two showers coming into Western Scotland, maybe Northern Ireland, but most places will become dry through this evening.
00:30Long clear spells through the night, allowing it to turn a bit colder than it did for Wednesday night and into Thursday.
00:37Temperatures to start Friday will be into single figures in rural spots. Most towns and cities about 10, 11 or 12 Celsius.
00:44A fine start though to Friday for the vast majority. Sunny spells over Eastern Scotland, Eastern England, the Midlands, much of Wales and the Southwest.
00:51Again, still just enough of a breeze to blow in the odd shower over Northwest England, Western Scotland, but few and far between.
00:58Maybe the old one for Wales, Southwest England too. But most places will stay dry. There'll be some cloud developing through the day.
01:05It's not going to be blue skies all day, but generally dry and bright. Much drier than it has been for most of this week.
01:12And the wind's a lot lighter as well. Certainly across the south, you'll notice that.
01:16The breeze will be picking up in the far Northwest where there'll be increasing amounts of clouds spilling into the Western Isles.
01:21There's maybe a little bit of drizzle here, but generally, as I say, a dry day, a calmer day and feeling warmer as well.
01:27Temperatures, high teens, low 20s. 21, 22 in the sunny spells across East Anglia and the Southeast.
01:33As we go through Friday evening, I think most places will stay dry and fine.
01:37The wind's still pretty light as well. It will turn quite cool with the clearing skies initially.
01:41Still some thicker cloud over the northwest of Scotland and overnight, the possibility of a few showers drifting up.
01:48Notice the wind's kind of switching direction coming up from the south.
01:51That will eventually bring some warmer air, but still quite cool, I suspect, to start the weekend.
01:56Most of us having a fine day on Saturday.
01:59There'll be quite a lot of high cloud around, so the sunshine could be rather hazy.
02:03A few showers possible drifting northwards into Western Scotland, perhaps Northern Ireland.
02:08But again, most places look like being dry and fine with some hazy sunshine around.
02:15Those winds have switched, drawing up the warmer air, so more widely over 20 Celsius on Saturday
02:20and feeling increasingly humid as we go through Saturday night and into Sunday as well.
02:26But Sunday doesn't look as dry. Far from it.
02:28Notice behind me some rain clouds gathering.
02:31That's from this area of low pressure, which is moving towards us during the weekend and developing as well.
02:37Quite a few isobars on the chart, so it's going to bring a spell of rain, but also bring increasingly windy conditions, particularly out to the west.
02:45If we rewind, though, you can see that how that warmer air I talked about earlier pushes northwards as the high pressure moves east, the low pressure approaches.
02:53But before it gets here, we'll see a waft of warmer air coming in.
02:56So Sunday likely to feel pretty humid, and we will see wet and windy weather moving in as well.
03:02Saturday generally dry and bright.
03:05Of course, you can watch our full weekend forecast available on our YouTube channel.
